    Golden State: A Novel The state of California votes on secession in the wake of a divisive presidential election in this  gripping political thriller. Published in 2014, the novel predicts with eerie accuracy the events of 2017.

    A controversial candidate who vows to build a border wall with Mexico has just been elected president. When the new president threatens war with Iran, begins aggressive offshore drilling off the West Coast, and rolls back civil liberties and reproductive rights, California’s fringe secession movement goes mainstream. The last straw is when a Northern California dam suffers a catastrophic failure, leaving hundreds of Californians homeless.

    Against the backdrop of the secession vote, Doctor Julie Walker, faces her own private nightmare. She has just signed her divorce papers when she receives news that her younger sister, Heather, has gone into labor. Though theirs is a strained relationship, Julie sets out for the hospital to be at her sister’s side–no easy task, as the streets of San Francisco have erupted into chaos. Today is the day that Californians vote on whether or not to secede from the United States. Today is also the day that Julie will find herself at the epicenter of a violent standoff with a hostage-taker who was once her patient and friend.

    All that glitters may lead right to his heart…

    The last thing Cleopatra Knight expects on her business trip to Tokyo is to fall into bed with her arrogant, irresistibly hot boss, Dante Damaso. It’s a mistake—a steamy, mind-blowingly satisfying mistake. But a few nights of passion with the superwealthy bad boy prove to have long-term effects when Cleo’s world is unexpectedly turned upside down.

    Dante has cultivated an enviable, jet-setting lifestyle: beautiful women, exotic destinations, and luxury without limits. He’s not looking to be domesticated, and certainly not by his assistant—even though he can’t get her out of his mind. Still, he knows he has both the responsibility and the financial means to help Cleo.

    Though Cleo has no interest in Dante’s money, her lack of prospects gives her little choice but to accept his help. But living under the same roof, Dante discovers he wants more, and if Cleo lets down her guard, she just might find what her heart’s wanted all along.

    Presidents in Crisis: Tough Decisions inside the White House from Truman to Obama Every American president, when faced with a crisis, longs to take bold and decisive action, but, contrary to the dramatizations of Hollywood, rarely does a president have that option.

    In Presidents in Crisis, a former director of the Situation Room takes the reader inside the White House during seventeen grave international emergencies handled by the presidents from Truman to Obama: from North Korea’s invasion of South Korea to the revolutions of the Arab Spring, and from the thirteen days of the Cuban Missile Crisis to the taking of American diplomats hostage in Iran and George W. Bush’s response to the attacks of September 11, 2001.

    The Finn Factor A new adult romance from Entangled’s Embrace imprint…

    Sometimes all a girl needs is a little practice…

    It’s been twelve months, three days, and eleven hours since accounting student Scarlett Logan made it past a second date. A pitcher of mojitos in hand, she employs her supreme graphing skills to narrow things down to one horrifying explanation. Kissing. Clearly someone needs to teach her how to kiss properly. Like, say, her best friend and roomie, Finn Mackenzie. He’s safe, he’s convenient, and yeah, maybe just a little gorgeous.

    Finn knows exactly why Scarlett’s boyfriends are disappearing quickly. Him. Not a single guy she’s brought home is nearly good enough. And he’ll be damned if he lets some loser give her "kissing lessons." No. He’ll do the honors, thank you very much. The moment their lips touch, though, everything turns upside down. But Scarlett deserves the one thing Finn can’t give her. And if he doesn’t put an end to the sexy little shenanigans, he’ll teach Scarlett the hardest lesson of all… heartbreak.
